BOOK NOW! Top Penthouse, Unbeatable views, 2 primaries and additional 3rd room

Welcome to Sterling Beach corner Penthouse unit 1701!! A completely updated, beautifully redecorated, 3 bedroom 3 bathroom 2500sqft condo with high ceilings, floor to ceiling windows spanning the entire living space creating spectacular views of the world famous emerald waters and white sand beach. You could spend the entire day sitting in front of the windows if you choose and won’t regret it! There is a fantastic vantage point from the top to spot dolphins, stingrays, manatees and yes sharks. My husband and I truly enjoy sitting in those window chairs for hours as does our 17 and 13 yo kids. When a storm rolls through its pretty incredible to watch that too. There are two balcony’s with the larger accessible off the living room as well as from one of the two primary bedrooms that includes a table and chairs for dining or relaxing in the shade. It’s an excellent option to watch those amazing Florida sunsets. The second balcony has its own private access via the second primary bedroom with set of chairs and side table. Our unit includes a set of beach chairs and umbrella down at beach in season. This luxurious beachfront condo sleeps MAX of 8 and offers heated pool (in cooler months) hot tub, fitness center, WiFi, and smart TVs in every room. **Please note the complex does not allow golf carts on property. Take moment to scroll through all the photos to really get a feel of how spacious, comfortable and the details that set us apart. We aren’t absentee owners as we also visit as much as possible from our hometown of Houston. With the kids getting older and more commitments those visit have been getting shorter and shorter. We are happy to be able to share our incredible home away from home with others so that they too can make lasting memories

The Condo was beautifully decorated, very clean and amazing views. Easy communication with the host, she made sure we had everything and let us know to contact her if we needed anything. We love the location, the elevators are never slow or too crowded and the beach and pool area are quiet and not crowded either. Very family friendly, especially since we were there for spring break. Looking forward to booking in the future.

Gorgeous Unit

We have stayed in different units within this building for the last 7 years, and 1701 is by far the best one. It was impeccably clean and fully stocked with the essentials and beyond. The beautiful view from the floor to ceiling windows is unmatched. The owner maintained excellent communication, and we can’t wait to book here again in the future!

Great Week in Sterling 1701!

The week we spent in Sterling Beach 1701 more than met our expectations. The condo is very tastefully decorated, and the blue accents throughout are gorgeous. Of course, it goes without saying that the views from the floor to ceiling windows on the top floor are to die for. We particularly enjoyed the rain shower heads after a day on the beach. I think this is the nicest unit we have stayed in at Sterling (we have rented there for 12 plus years). Jen is a great host and communication was excellent. We will definitely consider renting this unit again in the future.

Absolutely breathtaking, beyond words

Everything was in pristine condition. All of our expectations were met at every angle. From the amazing floor to ceiling window views down to the tiny details that most wouldn't even think of. Hands-down the very best day we could have ever imagined. Jen covered every bit of information that we needed, plus! She said that we wouldn’t be disappointed, and she was not kidding. We were way beyond pleased. See you again real soon!

This house was easily one of the most beautiful units we have ever stayed in at the beach. It was incredibly clean, well maintained, and well laid out. Our group had room to spread out and stay comfy. The massive floor to ceiling windows really put you “on” the beach. The balcony was perfect to enjoy the cool air and sounds of the ocean at night. The grounds were very well kept and constantly patrolled by the property managers. The parking lot was very nice, well lit, and quiet. The pool was very clean and well maintained. The owner was incredibly nice, prompt, and quick to respond to any questions. We had an amazing time and will be back.

Great property, everything we expected

My wife and I decided last minute to bring in the New Year at the beach, not anticipating a cold front. Since we weren't able to hang at the beach, we were forced to hang in the condo. We enjoyed every minute there, the place had everything we needed and a great atmosphere. We really enjoyed the fresh remodel and the nice kitchen. If you are looking for a really nice, clean two bedroom, this is definitely the place for you.

Paradise Found!

From beginning to end our experience was amazing! The unit was spacious, the views spectacular and the unit was fully equipped with anything one might. I enjoyed being at the less busy end of the beach but still close enough to wonderful restaurants, attractions and Pier Park. We began staying at this unit about 5 years ago and plan to return every year moving forward. My husband and I highly recommend making this unit your PCB home away from home.

Sometimes with pictures, you aren't sure what you are going to get. This property far exceeded expectations in all ways. It was spacious, clean, comfortable and had everything you needed for a relaxing beach vacation. The host was amazing to work with as well providing some really great recommendations in the area for families. The pool and beach areas were flawless as well and the residents and other guests were very courteous. You can book this property and then relax knowing that everything is going to be great.

The view makes it hard to leave!

From the moment you open the door to this condo located on the top floor of the building, you are immediately drawn to the view. Wow. It's even worthy of our teenagers doing a tik tok dance with that as their background! We were all very comfortable (3 adults, 3 kids); enjoyed the condo for cooking and eating in one night, spent time in the heated community pool and hot tub, and it's close to lots of activities and restaurants. You will enjoy your stay here too.
